It was really poor. Indians and the Indian rulers were treated as puppets. British used to be given high jobs and Indians were given jobs below their qualifications. The British looted most of the India. Peasents were treated as slaves. Tax was too high and their were man made famines. The british forced the farmers to grow cotton and indigo which were used as raw materials in industries. They abolished many Indian rituals as sati system, polygamy and child marriage. They opened schools also where all type of children of all religions were given education. There was more discrimination between the British and Indians. Indians were dying for the independence.
